Enjoy Your Birthday! Round Card

I am sharing with you today a round birthday card! I don't normally do round cards because...well I'm not sure why, but this one was super fun to make!
The sketch I chose to use is from this site: Mojo Monday which I found by doing a Google image search.

I combined several challenge themes to decide the content of my card. The card base is cut from the Cricut Wild Card cartridge, along with the large red border which is also then embossed using my Swiss Dots folder.

The red scalloped border at the top and the yellow scalloped circle are both cut from the Holiday Cakes cartridge. I added a yellow/cream colored circle cut from George and Basic Shapes to the yellow scallop circle and then added some detailing with a gold gel pen.
The leaves under the pie are from the Cheerful Seasons cartridge, which I also added gold detailing to before gluing them under the pie.

The pie is cut from the Thanksgiving cartridge. I cut it out twice and placed the white cutout behind the brown for added dimension and detailing. The swirls didn't cut out properly on the brown cutout, so I trimmed some of them off and cleaned up a few of the frayed edges before adding it to the white cutout. I like how it looks on the white. It helps stand it out a bit more from the yellow background.

Like the pie card. Especially like the detail & how the pie makes me want to have a slice (and I mean that in a good way). I'm a Guest Crafter at DCD this wk.Melissa"Sunshine HoneyBee"http://CreatedbySunshineHoneyBee.blogspot.com
